Snowflake necklace from Tatty Devine

April — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 15:45:34 +0000

This little delight popped through the door, and as it was a little later than the rest of our A/W collection, we didin’t want you to miss out!

Apart from snowflakes being beautiful, and Tatty being a talented bunch, this piece is made form a new kind of perspex that catches the light, and shimmers in lilacs, blues, turquoises and greens. Try saying that after a cocktail!

To top it off, there are also Swarovski crystal to help you shine even more!! Click here to buy.

Signed books from Anita Klein

April — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 16:43:19 +0000

The lovely Anita Klein very kindly signed a number of her books for us, and they are now in the bookshop.

Italian Angels is a catalogue from her 2009 Bankside exhibition inspired by her visits to Tuscany. Each painting is titled in Italian, and has a literary quote about the inspiration for the image.

The second book, Through the Looking Glass was published this year to coincide with moving to her new studio in central London. It contains a huge selection of prints and paintings with Anita’s recognisable themes of family life, angels, nature and coy looks over her husband’s shoulder.

Through the Looking Glass is £ 24.99 andItalian Angels is £ 12. Both make perfect gifts for fans of Anita Klein work.

Vases, bags, purses, books and mugs….

Last night with Rob Ryan

April — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 12:26:56 +0000

Despite a horrible rain storm in the afternoon, lots of you came to see this beautiful show. We kept Rob very busy with book signings, and everyone got lovely, personal messages and drawings. ‘A Sky Full of Kindness’ is now officially open, and will be everyday, 10 – 5pm, until 5th December. If you can’t make down to the beach, you can see lots of lovely images here.

Rob Ryan at Castor & Pollux tonight!! Don’t let the rain put you off!

April — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 14:55:06 +0000

It’s cosy in the gallery, even though we can hear the sea roar. Come and join us, and Mister Rob tonight to celebrate the launch of a Sky Full of Kindness.

We will be at Castor & Pollux from 5pm, and promise warming wine, amazing art, and other lovely things. Much better than going straight from work to the telly!

See you later…
